Biography

Gabrielle Roth is a Network Engineer, but is still a biology geek at heart. She lives in Portland, OR with a small but ambitious Monstera deliciosa, Mia. After OSCON 2007, she started Code-n-Splode as an effort to get more women involved in open source projects. When she’s not tinkering with networks or databases, she enjoys crashing her mountain bike & practicing parade formations with the PostgreSQL Army of Smurfs.

Sessions

The idea for Code-n-Splode grew out of the Women in Open Source BOF at OSCON 2007. I’ll talk about my original reasons for starting a women-friendly tech group, how the group is evolving, and what I’ve learned.
